FML

Have be a little tardy with posts recently due to the fact I might not have one soon, Google announced a few weeks ago that they are discontinuing FTP support for blogger (what powers this blog) to help them control blogger better by hosting all the data on their servers.

After the fucking I got from Uber.com when they died I am wary to trust my data to anyone else, so I might migrate to Wordpress to stay FTP.
There are plenty pissed off people, so maybe it might be ok. Yeah right.

Also from the SWAP visa Website;

"We have received notification this morning from the Canadian Government that they will no longer be issuing any returner visas for New Zealanders wanting to extend their working holiday in Canada for a second year. This decision has been made in conjunction with the New Zealand Government and is effective immediately"

So my plans must change. Still Canada bound, but a new road must be scouted.

Hug?

Cromwell, 2005

CromwellSo I have just discovered that I have to take a holiday before the end of June for 9 days or else I will lose them, so I have been thinking about getting to Cornwall and check out the surf. I've had a quick look for boaters/boats on the net, but have had little success. If I could rent a nice boat that would be sweet, but finding one to borrow that would be even better if you know anyone. . . big if.

Also considering a return to Amsterdam now that's its a bit warmer, find a small place to rent for a week and chill out, explore for real this time, get out of the city etc.

Home/work life has been much better, started propagating tomatoes, chillies and herbs for the garden, got a desk, found a bike which I'm doing up, too bad the ocean is a long ride away :(

I have a lot of plans and ideas happening at the moment, and all are very dependent on timing, but really I think it will all turn out ok. I have had issues with my inability to start something concrete before I get too old, but I realize that it doesn't mean shit if I think I have wasted my time/youth doing something that doesn't pan out. I think that's why this job has been tough because I resent the fact that I am here just to save money rather than to learn and experience new things.

Things will always be changing, I will have a new kayak, I will be closer to the ocean, I will be somewhere else next year, and I will succeed. Of Course :P Canada by the end of the year? Maybe. . . Let see how the west coast pans out, maybe an exploration of Scotland is in order soon too.

Anyone heard of hitchhiking in the UK? I'll give it a go if its not impossible. . . .
